Owls, the acclaimed "inverted" string quartet featuring an unusual lineup of violin, viola, and two cellos, presents their debut album Rare Birds on New Amsterdam Records. This talent-laden ensemble, described as a "dream group" by critics, showcases their unique instrumentation and sonority across six carefully curated pieces that span classical and contemporary works.
The album offers an eclectic journey through both familiar and unfamiliar territory, concluding with a stunning new arrangement of Terry Riley's minimalist masterpiece "Good Medicine" - originally recorded by Kronos Quartet in 1989 but reimagined here for Owls' distinctive four-string configuration. As violinist Alexi Kenney notes, this collection truly offers "something for everyone" while delivering the "good vibes" that make this debut release a rewarding listen for discerning classical music enthusiasts.
